I am terrified, and I need help.

Hello everyone. Sorry I've been dark on all forms of chatting to people for most of Dec, unfortunately. I've been adjusting to medication for my mental health and physical health issues post-car-crash and they've been having some Fun Side Effects. Also, my desktop computer AND my laptop died stone dead in the same week, which definitely didn't help the mental part.

Having lost my job after having the gall to 'have my GP demand I take the month off after a high speed car crash' and my work refusing to accommodate me once I returned, I've been living off my small savings and desperately looking for work. I've not found anything so far.

All of this to mean, This Is It. Once I've paid January's rent on the 3rd Jan, I will not have enough money for Feburary. At all.

And I need help. So much help. More help than I have ever asked for before to keep us housed and fed and safe.

My rent is £1190 a month. My bills are between £300 - £450, not accounting for the food bill. I've applied for assistance, but it's been such a difficult process that I've had to loop my local MP into the proceedings. So I've received nothing in the way of help from the govt yet.

I....I just need monetary help. I have a wonderful friend in @ themathomhouse who has been magnificent in helping me navigate the bureaucracy and paperwork as I've been incapable of doing so without having a massive breakdown, and I've been keeping my medical visits and waitlists ticking over. But after the 3rd I will be looking to pay my next round of rent in Feb somehow out of the £500 I'll have left, and that math doesn't add up at all.

I hate this. I hate this because I had a job and a lifeplan all starting, only for it to be slapped out of my hands by...literally nothing I did. I hate that I'm entering the single most precarious month of my life having to told my life and the lives of my family in my hands in a horrifying balancing act. I'm just scared, worried, and stressed out.

If you can help, my paypal is HERE. If you want to help but can't, please just share this post. If you don't even want to do that, please just send me well wishes because I'm just...a complete wreck right now.

still believe that one of the greatest bits of all time was on January 6th, 2021 when. well. you know. and twitter was understandably an echo chamber of panic and fear and Justin McElroy just tweeted a selfie with a filter that was like “have a delicious national spaghetti day” followed by 3 tweets that were like “fuck. i’m sorry. i don’t know how to delete scheduled posts” and as i type this two years later i’m laughing

1: I’m thinking of a community of Catholic Christians over a geographical area, but I can’t remember the name of it.

2: Is it a diocese?

1: No, it’s smaller than that

Bravo also to Robert Eggers for probably the least bad depiction of Transylvania in Western vampire cinematic history:

1. Having actual Romanian actors doing the dialogue in Romanian. You'd think this is a low bar to clear but nope.

2. High quality costume design that looks pretty accurate to 19th century Romanian and Roma peasantry, even down to specific braided hairstyles from the Transylvanian region.

3. Depiction of Roma people but refrains from having them as some typical Hollywood exoticizing role like a magical fortune teller etc. They're in like half a scene, just chilling and playing music in front of an inn.

4. Use of the word "strigoi" which are actual spirits in Romanian folklore, unlike the term "vampire" which didn't exist in Romania.

5. Sorry to the Nosferatu moustache haters, but a Romanian nobleman would have had that exact facial hair.

6. Depiction of religion (nuns, churches) that actually looks like Eastern Orthodoxy and not some vaguely spooky goth Christianity.

I… uh… would like an egyptologist’s opinion on this picture I’ve just seen online.

I love the concept of Tooks. "Everybody in the Shire is very very businesslike and respectable and has no use for adventures except for this one entire family of mad lads who also run the municipal government"
